Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
At 44mm across but only 9.25mm deep, this sits flatter against the wrist than a case of that diameter usually does — bold in presence without the stack height that tends to make large fashion watches uncomfortable by midday. At 57 grams on the silicone strap, it is genuinely light. The blue sunray dial carries a cut-through triangle at its centre, framing the brand's G logo in a way that gives the dial some architectural interest. The silver case and black strap keep the contrast simple, which lets that detail do its work without competition.

Learn more about Guess
The Marciano brothers founded Guess in Los Angeles in 1981, building it on denim and advertising that became as well known as the clothes.
The watch line is produced in-house through Guess Watches and Sequel AG, and follows the brand's aesthetic closely: crystal-set bezels, heavy gold and rose gold plating, oversized cases, and dials that favour decoration over legibility. Movements are quartz.
The watches are priced as accessories and sold as such.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
22mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
